Farm Classes

"Grow with Me" Farm School
Register Now: Next session starts April 28, 2025
At Farm School, Little Farmers explore the living world through face-to-face interactions with our animal friends, nature-inspired crafts, stories, songs, and more. We begin each class in our PlayPen, where little farmers delight in their choice of dramatic, sensory, and messy play that promote motor, cognitive, and social development. Then, we gather for a joyful community circle. Finally, we work together to care for our animal friends.
